Psalm 12:4-6
Psalm 12: 4 to 6
4 May ADONAI cut off all flattering lips — a tongue bragging big things.
5 They say: “With our tongue we’ll prevail. We own our lips — who can master us?”
6 “Because of the oppression of the poor, because of the groaning of the needy, now will I arise,” says ADONAI. “I will put him in the safe place — he pants for it.”
